About our party hog roast in Lychpit
For a christening or naming day in Lychpit, a hog roast in the garden feeds the whole family, and nobody misses the celebration. Typical bookings include neighbourhood parties and engagement celebrations, with crackling, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls.
Near Lychpit, parties are often in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll plan the route. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish.
Full catering or machine hire?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
